Post-COVID condition is the presence of new, recurring, or ongoing signs and symptoms for greater than four weeks after a SARS-CoV-2 infection. Persistent headache as a neurologic sequalae of COVID-19 infection is a common prolonged symptom with limited characterization in the literature. This was a case of a 27-year-old female diagnosed with mild COVID-19 who presented with fever, colds, fatigue, headache, decreased hearing, sore throat, dry cough, pleuritic chest pain, anosmia, ageusia, myalgia, and severe low back pain. Headache was described as remitting, frontally located, squeezing and moderate to severe in pain intensity. She was admitted in a tertiary COVID referral hospital for 8 days and was managed supportively. On the 10th day of illness, symptoms had resolved except for an on and off headache. The residual recurrent headache lasted for more than 5 months after being tested negative for SARSCOV2 on repeat reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The possible pathophysiologic mechanisms for neurologic manifestations and prolonged headache were hypoxia, endothelial damage through angiotensin converting enzyme receptor, and cytokine reactions. The characteristics of the symptoms remained unclear despite the proposed mechanisms for prolonged headache among COVID-19 patients.

Coronal discoloration is a common sequela to traumatic injuries. In subluxation cases, although the injury is not strong enough to rupture the apical vessels, discoloration may appear by tearing thin walls or occluding small capillaries. In absence of infection pulpal regeneration can occur, and as a result discoloration may completely or partially subside. But judging pulpal status by coronal discoloration can be dangerous and it may lead to unnecessary treatment. This case presents coronal discoloration and recovery following traumatic injury of maxillary anterior teeth. In diagnosing traumatized teeth routine cold tests or electric pulp tests are known to be unreliable, but with the aid of ultrasound doppler imaging, assessing pulp vitality of traumatized teeth can be more accurate.

DNA profiles have been increasingly used as the most reliable means to identify remains from war or mass disaster. To establish the identity with such a large set of victims, special care should be taken to correlate remains with correct family references while avoiding coincidental match between non-relatives. Therefore we address here relevant statistical and combinatorial issues in the DNA identification of mass victims. A simple and general formula for the likelihood ratio governing any potential kinship between two DNA profiles was presented, and for that purpose, the probabilities that a given relative and an individual share autosomal identical-bydescent alleles were calculated. In addition, a method dealing with the allele drop-out in kinship analysis and the estimation of a cold hit were discussed.
